1. Open an Office document on your
computer.
2. Save it in html format to the
ekdavroot folder in your Web root.
Regardless of how you save Office documents as HTML, be
careful to set up procedures that prevent HTML content from being
overwritten. For example:
1. You save a Word document as .html.
2. Someone edits the .html version.
3. You save the original Office Document as .html again.
In this scenario, the edits made in step 2 are overwritten by step 3.
It is important to establish procedures that avoid such problems.
